The Big 12 and Pac 12 want to match what the Big 10 and SEC did with the Orange Bowl.

This would eliminate another spot for non-power 5 conferences. This article puts the Big East in the "Group of 5" (MAC, Big East, Mountain West, Sun Belt and Conference USA ).

I think it's likely because of Louisville. If they finish undefeated even the greed mongers know they have to give it up,

In reality the NBE will likely have a well-ranked champ as a dominant teams romps through conference play.

So it seems like the Big 12 and Pac 12 want the seventh bowl. Both are Fox networks, at least partially, which may explain ESPN's reluctance.

We are going to have to go nuts and dominate the Big East in all sports.
